The position which Campbelltown (Bluff Harbor) occupies as the first port of arrival and last of departure for fche steamers carrying Her Majesty's English and Australian Mails, as well as its growing importance as a port of call for sailing vessels of large tonnage, and the fact that it is the southern terminus of the New Zealand Telegraph System, and of the Railways already, initiated in Southland, which eventually will traverse the whole of the Middle Island, has induced us to establish at this point a GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY. The objects we have in view are threefold : — Firstly. — Receiving and transacting all Mercantile Business in which the telegraphic wire may be called into requisition. | Secondly.— Supplying the Press throughout New Zealand with the latest English and Australasian Intelligence, including the state of Markets, Shipping, and- General News from all parts of the Colonies. Thirdly.— Transacting Telegraphic Business of a miscellaneous character for the pubhc at large. The marked success whicli has attended like undertakings both in Europe and the Colonies, when conducted with energy and intelligence, and the long experience of the projectors in mercantile business, and their thorough knowledge of the duties of a Pres3 Correspondent, combined with a determination to devote their whole attention to the Agency, emboldens them to solicit; public patronage. Arrangements are already in progress for the formation of a wide-spread system of Telegraphic Agencies throughout the whole of the Australian Colonies, in connection with the "NEW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY." The strictest secrecy, together with promptitude and accuracy in all affairs entrusted to us, may be relied on. Business will be commenced immediately on the completion of the Electric Telegraph between Dunedin and Campbelltown (Bluff Harbor). EITZG-ERALD, REYNOLDS & CO.
